Take off any stems and put them whole into a large saucepan<br \/>\n3. Use a handheld bamix to squash them up into a thick, smooth consistency<br \/>\n4. Cook them over a low \u2013 medium heat and stir constantly for 3 hours<br \/>\n5. At about the 2 hour mark, add the jam setter and mix in well<br \/>\n6.
